Simpson began to record songs in his bedroom during the summer of 2009 on YouTube, performing Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours", "Cry Me a River" by Justin Timberlake, and his own songs, "One" and "Perfect". He was subsequently discovered on YouTube by Shawn Campbell, a Grammy-nominated record producer who has produced for Jay-Z and other artists and moved to the US in June 2010 to sign with Atlantic Records. His debut single, iYiYi (featuring. Flo Rida), was released in June 2010 and peaked in the top 20 in Australia and top 30 in New Zealand.
Simpson released two studio albums with Atlantic Records, Paradise (2012), and Surfers Paradise (2013), before departing the label due to creative differences in August 2014. His first independent release, 2015's Free, marked a shift from his teen pop music to a more acoustic rock singer/songwriter sound. In 2017 he formed a band called Cody Simpson and the Tide, and released the blues and surf-rock influenced EPs Wave One (2018) and Wave Two (2019) before splitting in 2019.
In 2019, Simpson returned to solo work, releasing the single Golden Thing on 18 October, a song he wrote about his then-girlfriend Miley Cyrus.
In December 2020, Simpson revealed on Instagram that he had qualified for the Australian Olympic trials in the 100m butterfly, but failed to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics after finishing in 8th place in the trails in Adelaide in June 2021. He is currently training to make the 2024 Paris Olympics.
On 25 January 2022, Simpson released his first single in more than two years, Nice To Meet You, the first single off his upcoming 4th studio album, due to be released in early 2022.

The weather man's calling for rain today
So I thought we might sit by the window
While I play you a love song
Don't mind the lighting and thunder
Just sit close to me under my arm
I'll hold the chords while you strum along
And we'll be safe from harm
You and me together
For a couple of hours
Just watching the weather fall
Outside the window
This storm could be so beautiful
These clouds could be sunshine
If this heart of mine was yours
And yours was mine
This rainy day would be just fine
This rainy day would be just fine
There's nobody here except you and me
And the gently swaying trees
With leaves of glistening green
What's so wrong with being happy?
I've got a grey sky when I got you girl
By my side
And we'll be safe from harm
You and me together
For a couple of hours
Just watching the weather fall
Outside the window
This storm could be so beautiful
These clouds could be sunshine
If this heart of mine was yours
And yours was mine
This rainy day would be just fine
Come rain
Come shine
Come on girl I've made up my mind
You're the one turning these grey skies into sunshine
When I look at you and see that little smile
This storm could be so beautiful
These clouds could be sunshine
If this heart of mine was yours
And yours was mine
This rainy day would be just fine
This storm could be so beautiful
These clouds could be sunshine
If this heart of mine was yours
And yours was mine
This rainy day would be just fine
This rainy day would be just fine
This rainy day would be just fine
This rainy day would be just fine
